Everything I can do to Pray

Have you ever said, "All I can do is pray?" I did the other day. Today I was challenged in my prayer time. After taking thirty minutes and calling out the names of my loved ones and praying specific prayers of need, God asked me why do you say ALL you can do is pray? I pondered on this question and realized that although I believe in the power of prayer I had minimized its power. I was talking with a hurting friend on the phone the other day and I said "well, all I can do is pray" as if it was the last resort or something that was so minimal to her situation. Miracles are made on our knees and although many of us make it a practice I think we can get caught up in the routine of what we are doing and forget the power it produces.  I was challenged today to pray with a different mindset. To pray and recognize the value of what I am doing. You never know your little 30 minute pray time or one sentence request might trigger the Heavens to open up and release mighty miracles in your life, or the lives you took the time to mention. Pray with expectation don't minimize the one you are talking to, but realize the power He possesses. It will change your time on your knees!!!
